Space on the float is limited, so remaining slots will be filled on a first come first served basis but we have an unlimited number of places for out-walkers who can carry the Greyhound Pet Adoption Northwest Banners.

Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Parking at the very end of the parade route will be provided by a Downtown Portland company. We have a limited number of these spaces, and request that you carpool to the event if you wish to take advantage of this special perk.

If you have a large vehicle and would be interested in helping shuttle our parade volunteers from our parking area to our meeting space, please contact us at 800-767-5139. You can also email to Starlight Parade
